Clean sheets on the bed make me feel rich.
I change the sheets every Thursday. I used to change them on Friday as a sort of "welcome to the weekend", but Thursday proved to be a better day in my schedule.
During the summer I hang my laundry out to dry. My husband put up a wonderful clothes line as one of his first projects when we moved to this house. All the sheets are kept in a breakfront in our bedroom which is filled with fresh lavender sachets made with lavender from my garden.
The combination of sun-dried laundry and lavender is heavenly. It is awareness of the simple things in life that make our lives rich. Who needs a Rolls Royce when you can have fresh sheets?
My clothes line. I know there's nothing hanging on it but I didn't feel right about a picture displaying my knickers on the internet, and I'm waaaaaaaaaaay too lazy to "stage" a picture.A lovely water color...
Tuscany scene...
I love these colors...
Boy - that's a lot of laundry!
Maybe this is Kansas. It's windy...
And my very, very favorite...
Tell us what makes you feel rich?Have a wonderful holiday weekend and God bless!

I feel rich when all 3 kids climb into bed between me and hubby....and are still enough I can fall back asleep!!
Hi Adrienne, I didn't know that you had another blog. I really like what you chat about and wanted to respond to your weekly ritual of changing the bed linens. I thought that I was the only nut out there that did that!!! LOL! But, like you, it makes me (and my hubbie) feel incredible sliding into those clean, wonderful smelling sheets after a long hard day. I wish I could do it bi-weekly, but just don't have the time! What else makes me feel rich or in luxury? My bathroom full of powders and potions, and lotions, and girly feel-good in the tub type of stuff. And a glass of good wine every now and then!
I started to follow you as well so I can keep up with your posts! And thanks for inspiring more of your followers to come over to mine (especially my Catholic blog, cuz I think we need to help others develop their faith better in these very scary times).
I'll also add this blog to my Bella Vita blog's blogroll!
Love, Roz
